Hello fellow saltines,
This is my first time doing a magnesium test. I bought the Salifert test kit. There are no coral in the tank yet and I don't do any dosing. There are a couple fish and at some point I want to keep softies. The test gave me 1200 ppm. Should I raise this with dosing if I want to keep softies? My Google searches gave me 1250-1350ppm for mag for softies. The tank is only a few months old but CA has been pretty steady at 440ppm and Alk at 214ppm.
